Example of using models for provider independent cloud application deployment

As part of the EU FP7 project MODAClouds, we have been experimenting with modelling support for provider independent cloud applications within Modelio. In this tutorial, we will go deeper in the CPIM and CPSM models, and in the integration of Creator 4Clouds and CloudML. This tool has been developed by SINTEF during the MODAClouds project. This tool is basically a deployment engine that decouples the description of application components, their behaviour and connection from the cloud provider used to actually support these components.

MODAClouds is a research project started at September 2012 and funded by the European Commission. It aims at providing methods, a decision support system, an open source IDE and a runtime environment for high-level design, deployment and management of cloud provider independent applications. The open source IDE is an experimental extension of Modelio available here.
